I am here, Benjamin Franklin.
Yes, all we founding fathers quickly discovered over here that
all are equal. We couldn't perceive that quite so clearly on earth.
We felt we were privileged to rule for reasons about which we convinced
ourselves.
There are ignorant spirits and enlightened spirits, those with
an advanced view of human destiny and those who are totally devoid
of this quality.
The more you read about what we did, the more confused you get
about our achievement. Keep in mind that souls are complex, and
that many factors contribute to the fate we spirits have to endure.
Let me clarify a thought for you. One can perceive ignorance in
another, and then one can take efforts to harm that person. It all
depends on free-will choices.
I know you are unhappy to read that it was felt that poor people,
as well as blacks and women, should not vote. Yes, that was the
prejudice of the time. It's how we thought. And reality over here
has disabused us of much in our thinking that was, alas!, erroneous.
But also there was much that was true and that served us well.
